ESTIMATED POPULATIONS OF FREERS IN THE WORLD
The following is a computerized list of suggested Freer populations throughout the world.
WARNING: This is only an approximation. I know there are errors in the calculations for both Canada and the U.S.A. and suspect that there are others. The numbers do not even agree with the list of Freers that they place at the back of the book. So use it for what it is worth. (Information is from Freer Heirloom Edition: The Freers since 1750 - , Halbert's Family Heritage 1998: pp. 6.6 & 6.3)
Note: These statistics leave out many States including Florida, Kentucky, Michigan, Alaska, Illinois, etc. where there are known Freer Families. Hey, they even left me out!! and of course I'm number 1 in my Stats.!! I'm rather hard to miss when I'm the only one in Manitoba! I list these figures simply so one can have a "rough estimate".
